Taking suggestions for the Pre-Tech Ed party on Saturday before the conference – level 000

Ok, I’ve gotten a great response from others arriving at Tech Ed early, so this party should be a lot of fun. I have some ideas myself, but I’d like to take suggestions (from those who plan on attending) on the following items:

What time it should start

Where I should book it

What activities to include

What restaurant to include (because we must certainly kick off the week with a geek dinner!)

Here’s one idea. If everyone can get a class M license before June, we can all rent Harley’s from EagleRider’s in Orlando. 🙂 I had a Fat Boy for a day back in 2001, and Orlando is a pretty nice town to ride through.

That was a joke, but now that I think about it, I’m actually arriving the evening of the 3rd (Friday), so if any other bikers are as well, then maybe we can get our rentals and have a Pre-Pre-Tech Ed Party Biker Run.

A pre-tech ed party sounds like fun, but I won’t be there until Sat night @ about 6PM. If you do have something, I would make it close to the event for people like me that won’t have a car while down there. I will see if I can get some recommendations for restaurants or activities.

I’ll try to attend, but I’m arriving quite late on Saturday, so put me down as "tentative".

I will be arriving on Saturday night at about 6:30. Be a great way to start off.

I’ll be arriving mid-day on Saturday, taking one of those $$$ van/shuttles from the airport to the hotel. Staying at the JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes Resort. It’s near Seaworld and apparently not too far from the convention center. Would love to team up with everyone!
